Descripción
Sibling of #4433 — same endpoint, different failing query, unrelated root cause.
Symptom. On a deployment whose entity types use different ID types (some Bytes, some String/ID), entityChangesInBlock fails:
{
entityChangesInBlock(subgraphId: "QmXooQwKjSjMePubP3qGQP9JPNhRPr2bB2KWpN9pvrfutz", blockNumber: 23982654) {
updates { type entities }
deletions { type entities }
}
}
{ "errors": [ { "message": "Store error: store error: UNION types bytea and text cannot be matched" } ] }
Reproduced on: graph-node 0.42.1, and independently on 3-5 third-party indexers running 0.36.0-0.44.0 for the same deployment — the failure follows the deployment's schema, not the node.
Where it comes from. FindPossibleDeletionsQuery (store/postgres/src/relational_queries.rs) builds one statement per deployment by concatenating one branch per entity table:
select 'Transfer' as entity, 0 as causality_region, e.id from sgdN.transfer e where ...
union all
select 'Account' as entity, 0 as causality_region, e.id from sgdN.account e where ...
e.id is selected raw, and its column type is per-entity: text for ID/String ids, bytea for Bytes ids. UNION ALL requires a common type per column position, so any schema mixing the two is rejected by Postgres before a single row is read.
Worth noting the asymmetry with the sibling query: FindChangesQuery selects to_jsonb(e.*), which is jsonb on every branch and therefore unaffected. Only the deletions query trips on this.
Impact: same as #4433 — entityChangesInBlock is the cheapest indexer-side way to localise a POI divergence (diffing which entity types were written at the diverging block against another indexer). Deployments with mixed-ID schemas lose that signal entirely. Neither this nor #4433 affects indexing or query serving: the call chain (entityChangesInBlock -> SubgraphStore::entity_changes_in_block -> DeploymentStore::get_changes -> Layout::find_changes) is read-only, and find_changes has no other caller.

Línea de trabajo
Comienza en store/postgres/src/relational_queries.rs, en FindPossibleDeletionsQuery, y sigue cómo cada tabla de entidades aporta su id a la sentencia UNION ALL. Reproduce la solicitud entityChangesInBlock contra un deployment que combine campos Bytes y String/ID; después, verifica que la consulta de eliminaciones se complete correctamente y devuelva los cambios de entidad esperados para ambos tipos de ID.
